In reality, he's a lot like Zach Randolph, though I would rank Boozer a bit lower. Anyways, anyone looking at Utah can see that Okur is the Center on the team. I think Boozer shouldn't go any higher than the fifth round, behind Zach Randolph, as a double-double machine.

He's got 4.3 assists over the last 10 games, which obviously isn't going to lead a fantasy team but with 4 games a week that's a solid contribution. You've got a guy like Chauncey Billups playing just 2 games in a week and Boozer could easily out-assist him. He's no assist leader, but he's been dishing well enough for a center that it should be noticed. He's also shooting 72% from the line, which again won't help but he's definitely not going to hurt your team like other centers do. I do agree, however, that his blocks are nowhere near where they need to be. Still, I don't think I'd let him slip all the way to the 6th round. 6th round picks in my league this year included Damon Stoudemire, Jamal Crawford, and TJ Ford. Carlos Boozer has at least proven that as long as he's healthy, he'll put up numbers. I think fifth round at the very latest.

He's doing everything right now. Even hitting some threes and dishing out dimes.. not to mention his blocks from the sg With al harrington most likely not resigning with the hawks next year.. i think josh smith could avg. at least 18/7/4 with 2.5 blocks and 1 3ptm. one player i think you missed in the “late season surge” category is my boy Josh Smith.
